Vertical stripes in deep navy, teal, cyan, and forest green stack in rhythmic horizontal bands across a dark ground, creating a meditative optical pattern. The composition evokes the handmade quality of block printing, with subtle color shifts and deliberate linear marks that suggest multiple passes of carved blocks. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
